Dystonia is a movement disorder with a complex and not fully understood pathophysiology. Its better understanding would enable more focused treatment for the disorder. In this review, we provide an overview of recent studies of the pathophysiology of primary and secondary dystonia, with an emphasis on functional brain imaging.

Dystonias can be classified as primary or secondary, as dystonia-plus syndromes, and as heredodegenerative dystonias. Their prevalence is difficult to determine. In our experience 80-90% of all dystonias are primary. About 20-30% of those have a genetic background; 10-20% are secondary, with tardive dystonia and dystonia in cerebral palsy being the ...

Childhood dystonias are a heterogeneous group of disorders with strong inherited basis. This review describes the clinical characteristics, classification, genetic basis, pathophysiology, biochemistry, pathology, and treatment of dystonias, including the primary dystonias, the dystonia-plus syndromes, secondary dystonias, and heredodegenerative ...

Neurology, 1983
We studied 14 patients who had a combination of idiopathic torsion dystonia and myoclonic jerks. In many cases, the same muscles were involved in both the myoclonus and the dystonia. This made observation of the crucial dystonic postures difficult and led to misdiagnosis of other dyskinesias.

This article provides a summary of the state of the art in the diagnosis, classification, etiologies, and treatment of dystonia.Although many different clinical manifestations of dystonia have been recognized for decades, it is only in the past 5 years that a broadly accepted approach has emerged for classifying them into specific subgroups.

Although currently lacking a sensitive and specific electrophysiologic battery test, functional (psychogenic) dystonia can sometimes be diagnosed with clinically definite certainty using available criteria. Certain regional phenotypes have been recognized as distinctive, such as unilateral lip and jaw deviation, laterocollis with ipsilateral shoulder ...

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2017
In most cases the cause for dystonia is unknown. In a small number of patients, trauma precedes the onset of the dystonia. Significant head trauma is a well-recognized precipitating factor in dystonia. However, it has become increasingly recognized that peripheral trauma can also result in dystonia.

Dystonia is a syndrome of sustained muscle spasms of presumed central nervous system origin. Recent advances in molecular biology have permitted clearer understanding of the genetics of various forms of dystonia and suggest pathophysiological deficits at the origin of the clinical signs.

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2015
Dystonia is a movement disorder caused by diverse etiologies. Its treatment in children is particularly challenging due to the complexity of the development of the nervous system from birth to young adulthood. The treatment options of childhood dystonia include several oral pharmaceutical agents, botulinum toxin injections, and deep brain stimulation ...
